Wing Outboard Leading Edge (Left) 17-3-13 to 17-3-14
Moving on to working again on the left wing, I reassembled the left outboard leading edge and started riveting it together in the same way I had done the right leading edge. Everything went together smoothly and somewhat quicker since I already knew what to expect.
